About the Puerto Rico Half Marathon
The Puerto Rico Half Marathon embraces Caribbean energy with tropical intensity. Runners trace San Juan's stunning coastline at dawn, with the Atlantic's turquoise waters contrasting against historic El Morro fortress and colorful colonial buildings. March's warm temperatures and humidity create a challenging environment compensated by cooling ocean breezes. The relatively flat course traverses both modern resort areas and the atmospheric narrow streets of Old San Juan. Local spectators bring infectious enthusiasm with salsa rhythms and enthusiastic "¡Wepa!" cheers providing uniquely Puerto Rican encouragement. This race captures the island's distinctive character—passionately vibrant, historically rich, and naturally beautiful—offering both serious athletic challenge and cultural immersion in America's Caribbean paradise.
